[Building Sakai] i18n assesment

[Juan Rodríguez de Vera Mouliaá]

This message has been sent to the i18n list and some of you have already 
fulfilled the questionnaire (thanks to all of you!).

Despite of that, to obtain reliable and consistent outcomes, a more 
significant number of developer/administrators respondant is needed. I 
repost to get wider dissemination:

Various international specifications and standards with which to deal 
with the development of e-learning global software have been proposed by 
standardization bodies. However, the adoption and effective application 
of these is a challenging and complicated task. In order to achieve this 
goal, the University of Murcia Software Engineering Research Group has 
developed an E-learning internationalization catalog of requirements and 
a method with which to perform the audit process conforming to this 
catalog. This survey is framed in the audit method as a part of the tool 
testing phase.

We /expect, on the one hand, to obtain valuable information/ about the 
degree to which the Sakai platform complies with the 
internationalization standards and, on the other, to illustrate part of 
the aforementioned audit process.

Similar studies will be performed with other LMSs, such as Moodle or 
Blackboard, and we intend to establish a practical and reliable 
criterion with which to select the best LMS option as regards support 
for internationalization.


I think the result of this assesment could be valuable for the Sakai 
Community and of course I will publish the outcomes of this study on 
this forum.

We are very grateful if you could spend 15 minutes in fulfill this 
questionnaire.

Regards,
